School counselling service

School counselling staff are members of the school learning and support team.

A teacher may recommend the service by referring a student to the school’s learning and support team. As a parent or carer, you may refer your child directly to the school counselling service. Students can also self-refer to the service.

The school counselling service can:

support students who are worrying about school work, friends, getting in trouble at school or feeling down

help parents and carers make decisions about your child’s education

assess a student’s learning and behaviour

help teachers and students identify and address disabilities that may affect learning

liaise with other agencies regarding student wellbeing.

School counselling is confidential.
